docs: add README explaining snapshot origin
Snapshot extracted from EliverLara/Sweet (kde/cursors/Sweet-cursors) on 2025-09-28. Documents the rationale for keeping a frozen one-shot mirror instead of tracking upstream, and points to Gigas002/Sweet for users who want a maintained variant.

# Sweet-cursors
|
||||
|
||||
Cursor theme for the moonarch ecosystem — a frozen snapshot extracted from
|
||||
the upstream [Sweet](https://github.com/EliverLara/Sweet) project.
|
||||
|
||||
## Origin
|
||||
|
||||
Files were copied verbatim from `kde/cursors/Sweet-cursors/` of
|
||||
`EliverLara/Sweet` on 2025-09-28. Upstream added the cursor theme in a
|
||||
single commit on 2020-06-11 and never modified it again; the `kde/`
|
||||
directory has since been removed from upstream entirely.
|
||||
|
||||
This repository exists solely to provide a small, standalone source for the
|
||||
[`sweet-cursors-git`](https://gitea.moonarch.de/nevaforget/moonarch-pkgbuilds/src/branch/main/sweet-cursors-git)
|
||||
PKGBUILD — cloning the full Sweet KDE theme monorepo just to package one
|
||||
subdirectory adds unnecessary overhead to the CI build pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
## No upstream sync
|
||||
|
||||
This is intentionally a one-shot snapshot, not a tracking mirror. There is
|
||||
nothing to pull from `EliverLara/Sweet`: cursors haven't changed upstream
|
||||
since 2020, and the source path no longer exists.
|
||||
|
||||
For a maintained variant with newer cursor work and an SVG-based build
|
||||
pipeline, see [`Gigas002/Sweet`](https://github.com/Gigas002/Sweet)
|
||||
(branch `cursors`) and the AUR package `sweet-cursors-git` maintained by
|
||||
Gigas002.
